Jemma B.

Jemma is British but grew up in France in Grenoble surrounded by the Alps. She went to Artschool in the UK but rapidly returned to France to become a fully qualified mountain leader. She has been guiding hiking trips for over 30 years all over Europe, in the Alps, along the Méditerranéen coast and islands (Greece, Sardinia) and also further north in Ireland, and the Scandinavian countries. New Zealand is also on her list of destinations she has worked in and travelled to, on foot or on a bike. In the winter she takes groups to explore the wilderness on snowshoes in the French Alps. For Wildland, she will safely guide to around the Mont Blanc, in the Dolomites, around the Swiss Alps, in Greece and Ireland. Being a bit of a nomad in spirit, in her spare time, she likes the travel around on her bike for long trips, discovering new countries and cultures. When she is at home in the remote county of the Ardeche in France, she manages a BnB, a nature retreat in a tree house and yurt.

About Aubree Saulpaw

Raised in the beauty of Southern Utah with Zion National Park as her backyard, Aubree grew up playing in the desert, hiking red rock trails, and camping under the stars. The Mojave desert shaped her deep love for the outdoors. The area’s rich Indigenous history, particularly the Ancestral Puebloans and Southern Paiute tribes, sparked a fascination with culture, story, and the connection between people and place.

That early sense of curiosity led her to begin traveling internationally as soon as she graduated high school, seeking to understand the world through its landscapes and the lives of those who inhabit them. Her journey eventually led her into the travel industry as an aircraft dispatcher, creating the foundation of her understanding of global logistics and movement. But it was the opportunity to blend two great passions – cultural appreciation and the outdoors – that truly felt like the right fit.
